One day meeting at UCL, 9 January 2015

Theme:

This one-day meeting is one of four LMS meetings on inverse problems every year that brings together UK researchers who work on advancing the field of inverse problems, both from a theoretical and from an applied point of view.

The meeting will concentrate on learning in inverse problems. Appropriate inversion models are used to still be able to compute reliable solutions to ill-posed problems which maximise the information gain from the data. The solution accuracy thereby depends on our certainty in the model, the accuracy with which we can realise it and the amount of sensible prior information we can integrate in the model. We will discuss recent advances on analysing and optimising inversion models using data learning, model design under uncertainties and parameter choice rules.

Student Poster Prize:

We invite students and other early career researchers to present a poster about their research at the meeting. Please indicate your interest in presenting a poster when registering (see below).

A prize of £100 will be awarded to the best student poster to support travel and accommodation costs.

Speakers:

Invited speakers will include:

- Daniel Alexander (UCL)
John Aston (University of Cambridge)
Jose Caballero (Imperial College London)
Simon Cotter (University of Manchester)
Bangti Jin (UCL)
Marcelo Pereyra (University of Bristol)
